Abstract:Based on the tracking analysis of the authoritative literature of green development evaluation in China, this paper systematically studies the research status of this field by means of literature measurement and social network analysis.The results show that: There are obvious regional differences in the amount of published articles, and the amount of published articles is large in east China and northwest China with unique natural environment;There is a mismatch between academic research and actual management in this field; The evaluation index system lacks effective scientific basis and comprehensive integration method; The evaluation scope separates the internal relation between "green" and "development"; The evaluation dimension pays very little attention to social equity, social welfare and green consumption;The evaluation index which reflects the regional fair development of the proxy indicators are relatively insufficient. Under the background of current economic development, the core meaning of green development should be further clarified, the theoretical model of green development evaluation should be strengthened, and the overall cognition of the framework system of green development should be deepened; Pay attention to the universality of green development research and the internal relation between "green" and "development"; The green development indicators will highlight innovation-driven development, equitable development and social welfare, reflecting the people"s aspiration for a better life.
